Adventure Time with Jake and Finn has grown tremendously in popularity since its first airing, and has spurred a vast amount of creative projects, including a fully functional model of Adventure Time's BMO.
BMO is basically a living, breathing Gameboy on legs. Michael Thomas built the model out of LEGO bricks and a Rasberry Pi mini-computer. You can play games, surf the Internet and watch endless episodes of Adventure on this fully-functioning model of BMO.
This functioning model of Adventure Time's BMO is bound to excite tech geeks as much as fans of the show. It is essentially bringing the character to life in the most complete form imagined. This is better than cakes T-shirts, tea pots or plushies because BMO is capable of doing exactly what he does in the show -- being a hand-held videogame console and computer.
